This powerful supplement has been clinically shown to increase hair growth, help with weight loss and slow down & reverse the aging process

If you’ve been following me for awhile (specifically on Instagram), you know collagen is a staple for me every.single.day. And today I want to share why I take collagen and why I am so obsessed with it.

Less collagen means skin that starts to sag. Dry skin and wrinkles start to show. I know this sounds really doom and gloom and just sad. Don’t get upset just yet! There are a lot of things we can do to naturally reverse the aging process. I am all about that! Who isn’t? One of my top beauty tricks has been adding collagen to my diet. It has changed my life.

What is collagen

Collagen, based on the Greek word kolla meaning “glue,” is aptly named. It is the most prolific natural protein in our bodies—the adhesive that keeps our joints together and our skin elasticThink of it like this – it’s the “glue” that helps hold the body together, and when the glue begins to disintegrate, that’s when we begin to fall apart.

Found in our bones, muscles, and tissues, it breaks down as we age. By the time the average woman turns 50, she has lost half of her collagen. Outwardly, this results in sagging skin, weak nails, and brittle hair; inwardly, it results in joint pain and body stiffness.

Other benefits

It’s what helps skin stay strong and elastic as well as for replacing dead skin cells.

Collagen can even help reduce cellulite, as improving the skin’s elasticity with collagen means that dimpling becomes less evident.

Collagen is a special form of amino acid and most people simply don’t get enough of it in their daily diet.

How to use collagen

You can mix it with tea, smoothies, coffee or even add it to meals you’re prepping. I like to mix it with soup or hot chicken broth, which is a healthy way of having it and you don’t notice it at all. Depending on the formula you’re taking, different amounts are recommended. I use Living Traditionally Collagen (find it here) which is 100% pure and gmo-free. You can try collagen from aged 25 onwards when your body’s natural collagen supply begins to decrease. For me, it’s become an essential part of my daily beauty routine – I’m obsessed!

Unlike a lot of supplements, you’re not gambling a lot when you opt to try Living Traditionally collagen. (find it here) It will only cost you a little over $20and will last about a month.

But there is a lot of confusion as to where bread fits into a healthy diet.

The Bible practically commands followers to eat it: “Give us this day our daily bread…” The government put it at the base of the food pyramid. And for centuries, it has been called “the staff of life.”

The average American consumes 55 pounds of wheat flour every year, making refined flour the #1 source of calories in the American Diet – a situation that nutrition expert Chris Kresser describes as, “a public health catastrophe.”

Do You Know Your Body’s Most Important Weight Loss Secret?

Recently, Doctor of Naturopathy, weight-loss expert and best-selling Amazon author Liz Swann Miller, creator of the Red Smoothie Detox Factor, revealed 2 of the secrets to easy, steady weight loss. Secrets the big food corporations do their best to hide from us.

Secret #1: Enjoy real food. Don’t fall for the lie that you have to deprive yourself to lose weight.

Secret #2: stop eating out. You will automatically eat less without even noticing.

Then start detoxing your body with tasty, nourishing smoothies that are just as easy on your wallet as they are easy to make.

Now prepare yourself for one of the biggest weight loss secrets there is. A secret that, when you use it properly, can transform your body and your health.

You probably know most of us eat too much processed food. What you may not know is that it’s full of toxic chemicals and substandard, dirt-cheap ingredients designed to make you eat more…and force you to gain weight.

Here’s how it works.

“That stuff is just a lot of calories your body can’t use,” Liz told me, “Some are poison. And all these foods are stripped of the anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that help your body detox. The result? Your body expends huge amounts of calories to eliminatesome toxins—the rest, it stores in your fat to protect you. This is why most people are hungry all the time. They’re not getting energy they need.”

“So… what’s going on with me? Why am I losing weight but not going hungry?”

Liz paused, then dropped the bombshell.

Your body is designed to burn fat. You just have to let it.

“What? I thought we were designed to store fat?!?” We were Skyping and I was practically shouting. Then I heard Liz say…

What good is a fat reserve if you can’t burn it?

Mind blown.

Liz continued: “You’re drinking smoothies packed with phytonutrients, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories that pull toxins out of you like a tractor beam. Allowing your body to burn those toxin-filled fat stores… and releasing tremendous amounts of stored energy.”

So that’s why I’m losing weight without going hungry.
